In this day and age of social media and global networks, artists have more opportunities than ever to showcase their skills and their work. With just a few clicks of a mouse, you can locate thousands of artists working in various fields and genres across multiple platforms. We all have different personalities and it’s okay not to feel happy and upbeat all the time. Some of us may have a darker sense of humor, and that’s totally fine.

I’d like to introduce you to a new cartoonist who goes by the name Gamsu Jenkins, also known as Alex. Alex has always enjoyed creating comic books, and his works have been featured in well-known publications like Vice, the New York Times, and the BBC. His drawings are unique and different from other illustrators as he uses fantastical creatures and scenarios to convey satire and humor.

Alex has a great sense of humor, and his dark comics have garnered him almost 599,000 followers on Instagram. You’ll find plenty of dark comedy and unexpected twists in his comics, which we think you’ll find just as fascinating as we did. The artist describes his comics as “exploring sarcastic and critical subject matter through a distinctive and vivid style.” Scroll down to view some of Alex’s colorful and captivating illustrations!
